For almost a year now, my good morning routine is not starting after dismissing my alarm or at a specific time on my nest hub display Gen 2. The routine only executes on verbal command after activating the Google Assistant.


All routines that use a verbal command through the Google Assistant, execute properly, including the good morning routine. Also, except for the good morning routine, any routines created to execute at a specific time execute properly.

I'm happy to report that, on my Nest Hub display, my 'good morning routine' is working properly when dismissing an alarm on my display. However, I cannot specifically determine not only why or how it stopped, but also why or how it is working properly. I guess I'm simply happy it's just working. Here is my setup:


Nest Hub display: I have both the Sunrise alarm and Morning routine enabled. I toggled the Sunrise alarm on/off over multiple test attempts, and this did not seem to adversely affect whether or not the good morning routine plays.


Google Home app: In my Good morning routine, I've added "When an alarm is dismissed" and specifically added my "Bedroom Display" of the device on which an alarm is dismissed. I have also toggled on, "Get notified on your phone when this routine starts" but in all of my tests, I was never notified, and I am still not notified on my phone, when this routine plays.


In the Google Home app, and on the "Good Morning" routine page, I've tried all starters (At a specific time, At sunrise or sunset, When an alarm is dismissed), and I still cannot find a combination that I could reliably say would allow the Good Morning routine to play 100% of the time, after dismissing my alarm on my Nest Hub display. I remain baffled because this has worked flawlessly in the past.


Final thoughts. I turned on/off all settings, created new alarms, tried this, tried that. And maybe hitting a bunch buttons/toggles caused this to work. IDK, ridiculous if you ask me. But the setup I have above has worked for 5 consecutive mornings. My lights come up gradually, I get the weather, and my morning music plays. I'm fearful of the next update that comes to my Pixel, Nest Hub, or whatever Google service needs updated, but this is working for me now.


TL;DR: I removed all starters in the Google Home app for my "Good morning" routine. I left the "Morning routine," in Nest Hub display alarm setting, enabled. This seemed to magically make my morning routine play again, but play no matter if I dismiss OR snooze my alarm. Still so very odd.


Your use of sunrise as a starter triggered some thoughts. I do not use sunrise as a starter, but I do have "Sunrise alarm" enabled on the Nest Hub display, with the "Morning routine" to play after Nest Hub alarm is dismissed.


In my google Home app: I removed all starters except the "When I say to my Assistnat..." option, which I believe is required. I set a test alarm, and the "Morning routine" played after I dismissed the test alarm on my Nest Hub. I couldn't believe it. I ran another test, re-enabling the "Sunrise alarm" option on the Nest Hub. It worked again. Then I ran another test by adding a starter, in the Google Home App, "When an alarm is dismissed...on my Nest Hub display" option. It worked again. I ran a final test by turning off the "Morning routine" on my display, and as expected the Morning routine did not execute when dismissing my alarm, even though it was still listed as a starter in my Google Home app.






My final setup last night was to enable Morning routine directly in the alarm setting on my display. And in the home app, for my Good Morning routine, I added a starter "When an alarm is dismissed...on my Nest Hub display". I'm happy to say that my morning routine played this morning, with one minor flaw. I didn't 'dismiss' my alarm, I 'snoozed' it, and it still played my morning routine immediately. I guess I'll take what I can get.


Same. Been working fine for 4 plus yrs. Started about a week ago. Tried unchecking and rechecking the box "start good morning routine after dismissing alarm." Didn't work. A few weeks ago, I had to turn off home and away for my nest thermostat, which had also been working fine for years. It was randomly switching to away even though I hadn't been out of the house for a few days. Nest has also randomly started switching to heat/cool mode instead of eco mode, which is 64f on the bottom end instead of the 66f that I set on eco mode. It's too cold in winter for heat to come on only at 64f. Wouldn't even mind that so much if I could change the temps in heat/cool, but they're fixed in the app. Everything else in google home is working; lights and nest doorbell. Haven't checked other routines, but "good morning" is working fine with verbal command so I'm thinking since the others are only activated with verbal, they'll work. It's really annoying.


think I found an easy solution. Under my bedtime routine, I had "ask what time alarm should be set" then a screen with a tick box for "run good morning routine after alarm is dismissed." I unchecked the box, then I set up a completely separate alarm routine, and added the actions that are in my good morning routine. The alarm routine let's you select what speaker you use and you can set between certain hours, or leave that out and it will show the speaker you selected and anytime. This morning after I dismissed the alarm. The separate alarm routine kicked in right away, and I got my morning routine actions. I've tested it a few times and it's worked every time. Annoying that after working flawlessly for 4+ years, you need a work around.


Recently my Lenovo Smart Clock stopped automatically playing my Good Morning routine on all alarms, when the alarm goes off and I mumble in my half-asleep state "stop." What it does do is say "hi", "hello", and "good morning" in different tones about a dozen times.


My morning routine is set to activate when cancelling my morning alarm, but when I set a Monday to Friday morning alarm the routine won't trigger. It will sometimes trigger if I just ask to be woken up at a random time in the day if I go for a nap but the morning recurring alarm doesn't. This particularly seems to be a problem when Sleep Sensing is active.


Not when sleep tracking is turned on. As per the discussion above. If I turn sleep tracking off, the routine runs when I dismiss the alarm. When sleep tracking is on, there is no way to run the morning routine without dismissing the sleep report, which seems to cancel running of the morning routine. Seems like the developers at google didn't take that into account when developing the feature...or tested it, as they would have found the issue simply enough. It is 100% reproducible. A relatively simple fix would be to move the sleep report to after the morning routine runs, or not run the report at all unless the human asks for it. In that way, the human could put it in the morning routine to pull it up at a convenient time.


Try the following: switch off to trigger the morning routine in the alarm setting. Turn on trigger on alarm stop in the trigger section within the morning routine. This works for me, even having sleep tracking on.


I'll let you know tomorrow morning. Right now, I think I have both set "alarm to trigger morning" and morning routine trigger. So, I'll fix that up and see what happens....I'll turn sleep monitoring back on as well. If no go, then I'll turn sleep monitoring off again and see what happens on Friday.


So, tomorrow I'll try same with sleep tracking turned off, but as it stands now, I'm believing that sleep tracking report interferes with the good morning routine...at least from an audio perspective. Dismissing the report dismisses all the items to be run in the queue (if there is one)...ie weather report, news report and streaming audio.


Basically the same result for me. Tried the workaround mentioned and turned off morning routine in the alarm but turned it on for alarm dismissal in the routine. Did absolutely sod all. Got the sleep report and nothing else. Didn't even turn my lights on.


None of these work with sleep tracking turned on. I can't proceed until I dismiss the sleep report and that seems to kill the whole morning routine. If I dimiss the sleep report early lights don't turn on. If I dismiss it after 30 seconds or so the lights turn on, but no audio on any of my read items.
